well if you put speed holes in the rear bumper and cover all the holes in your front bumper you will drop your times on the 1/4 as well as pick up trap speeds.. same as removing mirrors and taping up all the gaps in your bonnet...

Do you guys worry about the effects of weight distribution/corner weight ratios being disturbed? Not so much of a problem with drag racing in mind but for circuit.....
hmm, maybe skinnier rear tyres, 1/4 tank of fuel, smaller air filter, pvc intake pipe?....removing unused seatbelts, all the little things count. :thumbsup:Quote:

hmm....one thing people don't mention is that...a Racing Fuel Tank...i think you guyz know how heavy a normal fuel tank is rite...EG5, is that a good idea for you? i think you can cut down by 10 kg or something like that...or may b you should also try...instead of making your exhaust all the way to the back, why not to the side of your car?...save some weight as well...i think this 2 stuff can cut down damn alot of weight...other than that, i have lil idea left...hope it helps...
